Former Coronation Street star Julie Goodyear has tied the knot with her toyboy lover Scott Brand.

The 65-year-old soap legend, who played Rovers landlady Bet Gilroy, married Scott, 39, at a secret ceremony. According to The Sun, they will celebrate their union with family and friends at stately home Hoar Cross Hall in Staffordshire tomorrow.

"We share a daft sense of humour and he knows how to treat a lady," Julie explained recently. "He admits he can't keep up with me. I tire him out."

Julie met Scott in 1996 when he delivered plaster to a home that she was renovating. The actress has had three previous marriages.
